This movie was like "Noah" or maybe "Midsommar" met and spawned a movie called "Northman." It was great actiion but the story often made no sense. Worth a watch but ... meh. I was onlay okay
PTH.

This was a good movie about a convoy making the Atlantic crossing with war supplies. Tom Hanks stars in this as the captain of the Greyhound, a destroyer escorting the convoy as it is harassed by German wolf packs of U-boats. It was action-packed and really good special effects, but we know virtually nothing of Hanks' character, but that he is a bachelor and master of the Greyhound, and he prays frequently. And apparently eats sparingly. His character was bi-dimensional and that took away from my enjoyment of the movie and made it a bit too dry. Better than the train-wreck of a movie that was "Dunkirk" but ... take this one or leave it.
This movie was a twisted and charming wreck from start to finish, an investigation into the purported suicide of the patriarch of a family that was otherwise a den of vipers. Daniel Craig was delightful as a Kentucky Fried Private Investigator and I cracked up at his performance. It's full of dark humor in and among all kinds of twists and turns on the way to the explosive conclusion. And I don't think the butler did it LOL
